Lower eyelid surgery without removal of fat Dermal fillers are typically the treatment of choice for eliminating eye bags without surgery. For patients whose eye bags are caused by cheek deflation, dermal fillers can restore the smooth transition from the under-eye to the cheeks, thereby eliminating the appearance of bags under the eyes. Some patients with excess fat under the eyes can benefit from this treatment. When surgery is done, we move the fat under the eyes into the hollowed areas.
